He pinched my chin. "Rest assured. No one can threaten your position as Mrs. Brooks. After you give birth, we'll live the same life as before, alright?"
I just felt irony.
He thought all I cared about was being his wife.
Zach probably forgot the promises he made when he pursued me.
He said he would love me for a lifetime and would never cheat on me or get involved with other women.
Sure enough, men were all like this. Once they got what they wanted, they would not cherish it.
Moreover, Zach was in a high position now, with a crowd of women eager to throw themselves at him.
Even if he could resist for a day or two, could he really hold out for a year or two?
Especially when I was gaining weight during my pregnancy, the contrast with the women around him was too great. Cheating on me was just a matter of time.
I was naive to think that having love would make him forever loyal to me.
I forgot that time would take love away and change people's hearts.
For the following days, Zach had been working from home.
He claimed it was to take care of me, but in reality, he was afraid I would sneak to the hospital for an abortion while he was out.
